I used to be an auto mechanic for a living, and having read alot of aftermarket service manuals, too many important thing are left out when compared to OE manuals. I recomend factory manuals. Rick

Well, there you have it and I'll agree, Clymer sucks. I also recommend the extra dollars for the parts manual, also.

I used a Clymer for my '03 EG Classic. It told me everything I needed to know.
